Buzz Lightyear of Star Command Audience Reviews

ada the leading man is my tpye
DipitySkillful an ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.
mraculeated The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.
Staci Frederick Blistering performances.
rikalonius I waited until i was 28 episodes in before I gave a review. I'm pleasantly surprised that after all that time I'm still having a good time watching this show. Not every episode is solid gold, but none of them are stinkers, and the core cast is great. A galactic A-Team vs Zurg and his many mercenary henchmen. Buzz is a delight as the do the right thing, self sacrificing, and very capable good cop leader. His co-pilot, Mira Nova, who is just barely out of rookie status provides his best counter-balance. She is a well rounded character. XR or Experimental Ranger is a comedic R2-D2 meets Robby the Robot from Forbidden Planet. And there is the large, but lovable Booster, the most inexperience member of the team. The plots are standard fare but so well executed, with clever dialog, that'll you easily forget that. Besides, Buzz Lightyear is light-hearted. It is more comedy than anything, but that isn't a negative. It is truly a fun and enjoyable show.
Spookygirl300 When I first heard about Buzz Lightyear of Star Command, I thought it sounded like a cheesy attempt to make money off the popular Buzz Lightyear character. Was I ever wrong! I've starting watching it and it's become one of my favorite TV shows.The series follows the adventures of Buzz Lightyear, the noble space hero, and his team of lovable rookie Space Rangers: Princess Mira Nova, Booster Sinclair Munchapper, and XR (the eXperimental Ranger), as they protect the galaxy from evil. Namely the Evil Emperor Zurg and his nasty side-kicks.The writing is brilliant, the plot lines of the episodes are creative and full of humor and action. XR is particularly funny, but all of the characters have great lines. The animation of the show is well-done; the cel animation and brilliant colors are a beauty to watch, and the shading on the characters (something that most of Disney's animated shows don't have) brings it to whole new level. The score, written by Adam Berry, is definitely up to par with any and all of Disney's distinctively fantastic music, and I'd love to see a soundtrack released someday.They say you shouldn't judge a book by its cover; well, don't judge a TV show by its title either. Have an open mind, and give this show a chance, you won't regret it.
mr-payton I really didn't think I'd like this cartoon when I first checked it out, but it turned out to be a pretty good watch. The conceptis simple--four Space Rangers protect various planets--but it's thequirky characters and crazy subplots that do the job. From villains whose goal is to make a planet boring and bland, to evil preteen clones of the heroes, the weird cast makes for good TV.The four main Rangers are almost analogues to the Seinfeld gang: Buzz is the introverted and suspicious Jerry, Mira is the sly-yet-socially-awkward Elaine, Booster and George are both chubby mama's boys, and Kramer and XR are just plain crazy. Then there's the insecure archenemy: Emperor Zurg. Voiced by Newman, no less.The voice acting is a little shaky but it holds up. The character design works well and in some cases is pretty innovative. Animation's smooth for the most part. The writing never really has any slow spots, and some dialogue (especially Buzz/Zurg banter) can make you laugh out loud.Overall, a pretty good show, kid's fare or not.
mrlizard Ever since my four-year-old son saw Toy Story, he's loved Buzz Lightyear. So, when we got the Buzz Lightyear of Star Command video and saw that there was going to be a television show based off the video, I knew I was going to have to watch it. Even though the Toy Story movies were great, after watching them for the five hundredth time, they got old, so I wasn't really looking forward to the series (even though my son couldn't wait).When the show premiered, though, I was more than pleasantly surprised. It was good. I actually look forward to my daily dose of Buzz Lightyear. The show is faithful to the Buzz Lightyear franchise, and has plenty of jokes in it that can keep even a grown up entertained and laughing. Plus, there have been plenty of episodes, so I don't see the same ones that often, even though my son watches them every day.Part of the reason I like this show so much is that Patrick Warburton (David Puddy of Seinfeld fame) plays Buzz Lightyear. He does an excellent job with the character. In fact, I think he does at least as good, if not better, a job as Tim Allen did in the movies. His nemesis, The Evil Emperor Zurg, is played by Wayne Knight (Newman from Seinfeld), and the chemistry is great.There also have been numerous guest voices, ranging from Eric Idle to Ricardo Montalbán, making the show that much more enjoyable.The show is great fun, for the whole family.
